Well, hopefully you've now grown a little wiser to the fact that someone's skin shade or country of origin doesn't mean they aren't good or to be taken seriously.
If you look at the current Episcopal Church fiasco coming out of England, regarding homosexual priests, etc., it is their African branch only which is leading the charge to condemn the whites in England and the U.S.A. who are demanding homosexual priests and homosexual marriages.
It's always the noisiest trash which gets the most publicity, creating a false impression that trash has a big following.
Many a time have Negroes told me that they wanted nothing to do with a candidate from among their own kind, because of the fact that the first thing that happens once someone gets a little successful (like Obama) is to sell out their own race.
As regarding such statements, I put forth that we Jews don't seem to be much different; the worst kapos are those from our people who rise up in politics and civic life.
